Hey buddy, I'm being serious. Your car used to not have a factory sunroof.

That's an aftermarket sunroof with the roof frame cut to get it in.

Everythings ok, but that also explains why it leaks.

I've seen sunroof hackjobs like this before and I steer clear of them. Good luck with the new project!

It looks like you have a chuki model (1993) and HAD a map light mount as well that was in the roof frame. that's what is circled here. (black plug for map lights) Map lights are 2 little lights, one for driver one for passenger and I think they only came on chuki models because none of my pignose cars had any. The white plug in the rear is for a regular dome light back behind the sunroof.

I searched google for 240sx headliner.This guy's sold his car since I think... sucks. Was a great build thread.Car's a coupe, so the roof frame might be slightly different. headliner no map lights: His build thread:zer...hread
